American Academy of Pediatrics Provides Disaster Preparedness Plans for Child Care Providers |
| The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has developed a step-by-step disaster preparedness plan for child care providers in response to the potential of a pandemic flu crisis.
A needs assessment of 1,500 licensed child care centers in 2008 showed that more can be done to prepare the early education and child care community for a pandemic influenza.
Top choices for improving preparedness were participation in training sessions, use of print materials, and access to downloadable or interactive Web-based tools.
The information and preparation tips offerd on the AAP web site go beyond preparation for flu pandemics and are steps that can be taken and used in a variety of disaster and emergency situations.
Visit the website for steps to take, strategies offered and a list of online resources to support your plan and educate families who use your services. |
